After confirming that Meng Yunche was truly asleep, Gu Qingyan coldly scanned the surroundings, then forcefully asked Si Mingyu, "Mingyu, I'll ask you one more time, where is Chen Zhiqi?"

Si Mingyu took a sip of wine and said calmly, "Qingyan, I already told you I don't know."

Gu Qingyan sneered and looked at him with hostility. "Don't pretend with me. Jing Ran is here too. He saw Zhi Qiu in Rongcheng with his own eyes last time."

Later you said you went on vacation, and coincidentally you went to Chengdu. What were you planning to do by hiding Zhi Qiu away?

"I said I didn't hide Zhi Qiu."

"Qingyan, I reminded you before to pay more attention to Zhiqiu, but you wouldn't listen to me. Instead, you got entangled with Xiao Wanqing, which is why Zhiqiu ran away from home."

"Just running away from home?" Gu Qingyan snorted coldly. "I've already received the divorce papers."

Si Mingyu raised an eyebrow, then nodded knowingly, "It seems Zhi Qiu is determined to leave you."

"What are you pretending for? If you hadn't hidden her away, how could she have divorced me?" Gu Qingyan stood up abruptly, grabbed Si Mingyu's shirt collar, and questioned him with a stern face.

Si Mingyu looked up and grabbed Gu Qingyan's arm, ignoring his anger, and said in a nonchalant tone, "Qingyan, you know best what you did to cause Zhi Qiu to want a divorce." Then, with a hint of self-deprecation, he added, "I actually hope it's because of me that Zhi Qiu is divorcing you; that way, at least there's some hope."

"Say that again!" Gu Qingyan shouted coldly, clenching her fist as if to punch Si Mingyu.

"Gu Qingyan!" Fu Jingran suddenly sneered, "I've realized you're fucking insane! I scolded you for so long last time, and you didn't listen to a single word! How could Xiao Wanqing possibly fall for someone like you?"

Si Mingyu frowned, looking at Fu Jingran thoughtfully.

Gu Qingyan narrowed his eyes. These two people in front of him were really taking turns provoking him. He roared angrily, "If you dare to say another word, I'll beat you up too!"

"All you do is talk big? Gu Qingyan, let me tell you, I've been wanting to beat you up for a long time!" Fu Jingran said, standing up abruptly, tearing off his coat and throwing it aside, rolling up his sleeves and looking at him provocatively.

Gu Qingyan abruptly released Si Mingyu and shoved him hard. Then he tugged at his tie and casually unbuttoned the top two buttons. He walked toward Fu Jingran with an extremely fierce aura, his gaze icy cold, his fists clenched tightly as he walked, the muscles in his arms clearly visible.

Fu Jingran sneered, "Come on, I'll beat you to death!"

Gu Qingyan frowned, seized the opportunity and quickly punched Fu Jingran in the face. Then she tightly gripped his right hand and used force with one hand to suppress him like an iron clamp.

Although both of them were pampered young masters, when Gu Qingyan was young, his grandfather would send him to participate in combat training every year. Over the years, although his physical fitness was not as good as that of professionals, it was definitely much better than that of Fu Jingran, who spent his days in banquets and parties.

Soon, Fu Jingran was beaten back repeatedly, his knees going weak. Just as he was about to be knocked to the ground, Fu Jingran caught a glimpse of the red wine bottles on the table, so he quickly grabbed one with his left hand, straightened up forcefully, and smashed it down on Gu Qingyan's head.

Gu Qingyan saw the wine bottle flash by and instinctively tried to dodge, but Fu Jingran was too fast, and Gu Qingyan could only quickly veer away.

With a loud bang, the wine bottle smashed heavily against the right side of his head, shattering instantly. A sharp shard of glass cut Gu Qingyan's neck; the wound wasn't deep, but bright red blood mixed with the deep red wine immediately stained his white shirt.

"Ah, are you guys opening champagne? I'll have some too." Meng Yunche, who was startled awake, sat up unsteadily, but his eyes seemed unable to open, and then he immediately closed them again.

Seeing that the two had already drawn blood from their fight, Si Mingyu stood up and forcefully separated them.

"Fu Jingran, have you gone mad?"

Fu Jingran's face was covered in injuries, and blood was still gushing from his nose. He grimaced and said, "Yes, he's gone mad. Breaking his head is too lenient. I wish I could kill him."

Gu Qingyan shook his head, trying to clear his mind. He slowly raised his head, looking at the furious Fu Jingran opposite him, a cold glint in his eyes. He touched the spot where he had been hit; it was warm. Frowning, Gu Qingyan tried to take another step forward.

"Heh, what? Want to get your head blown off again? Come on, I'll grant your wish." Fu Jingran's deep, cold voice was somewhat hoarse, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips. He gripped the broken wine bottle tightly and waved it defiantly at Gu Qingyan.

Si Mingyu didn't want things to escalate, so he grabbed Gu Qingyan. Fighting was allowed here, but no one could die.

"I'll just consider it as provoking a mad dog." Gu Qingyan stopped and snorted coldly.

"You're the mad dog! In the entire South City, you're the biggest scoundrel! You have the nerve to curse me. Let me tell you, you better stay away from Xiao Wanqing from now on, or I'll beat you every time I see you!" Fu Jingran roared through gritted teeth.

Gu Qingyan was being helped out by Si Mingyu when she heard Fu Jingran's threat. She stopped and turned back in disbelief. "Could it be that you like Wanqing?"

"Yes! I've always liked Wanqing! But I know Wanqing likes you, so I've never shown it. If you can continue to treat Wanqing well and make her happy, I can keep this secret to myself and never tell anyone for the rest of my life." Fu Jingran continued with a cold smile, "I originally thought that once you got married, Wanqing would be able to cut off her feelings for you, but who knew that Wanqing still likes you."

When Wanqing came back to China this time, I saw how good you were to her, and I thought you would divorce your wife and be with her cleanly. Who knew you would be such a bastard, unable to let go of either of them.

Gu Qingyan opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing. He suddenly realized he was truly in the wrong!

Si Mingyu rang the bell to call a waiter to clean up, and then took Gu Qingyan to the hospital.

When the doctors from the Gu Group saw Gu Qingyan looking disheveled, they were taken aback and hurriedly treated his wounds. After taking X-rays, they confirmed that he had a mild concussion and, just to be on the safe side, advised him to stay in the hospital for observation overnight.

After treating his wounds, Gu Qingyan came out and saw Si Mingyu leaning against the outside, still waiting for him. He walked up to him and said in a hoarse voice, "Mingyu, tell me the truth, tell me where Zhi Qiu is, okay? Consider it a favor I owe you."

"Qingyan, I admit it, I know where Zhiqiu is. But I promised Zhiqiu I couldn't tell you, I'm sorry." Si Mingyu looked at Gu Qingyan with a calm expression.

Suddenly, a doctor and several nurses frantically rushed downstairs in the corridor.

"What's wrong?" Si Mingyu quickly grabbed a nurse who was passing by him.

The nurse said in a horrified voice, "Someone has fallen from the building."
